Physical Description

Mr Moonlight is a handsome short-haired tabby guy. He has “anime eyes” when looking up at people, making it impossible to ignore him without giving him a pat on the head or face rub.

Known History & Temperament

Mr Moonlight (MooMoo) was picked up by the ranger and treated at the vet for an injured tail. Although he is microchipped, unfortunately his previous people could not take him back, and so he is looking for a new home. Mr Moo is a peaceable, low maintenance kinda guy, who enjoys his own company almost as much as he likes human company. He has yet to bond with the female cat in his foster home, but has no issues with them & seems curious but respectful if they keep to themselves.

Cattitude Level

  • Totally chill, not bovvered
  • Loves snuggle time, but also ‘alone’ time

Interests and Hobbies

Mr Moonlight is an older, refined gentleman who mostly enjoys relaxing and getting pats from humans. He is used to being outside, and still wants to be let out at night to prowl, so safe access through a catio is highly desirable.He is very into fuzzy blankets. Very. Into. Fuzzy. Blankets. He loves getting up on things also. He’s a climber. He mostly gets along with other chill cats, although his reserved personality has opened him up to being slightly bullied by a bratty tortoiseshell in his previous foster home.
He has become quite confident around our cat respectful dog, after initial skittishness, once he realised he wasn’t a threat.

Dislikes

Mr Moo took a little while to settle in and could be a little jumpy at first, although he has made himself comfortable and become quite the confident chap. He is not really a lap cat. But loves to sit above you, near you in the evening watching the telly & giving head bumps.

Purrfect Home

As an older cat, he would ideally suit a more peaceful home without young children, or someone looking for a cat always on the go. Mr Moonlight has his frisky & chase play moments, but is mostly happy just to hang out and get head bumps & scratches. He is quite quick.

His current carer thinks he would enjoy the company of a chill female cat around his age or older, just to interact with. He should be okay with a dog who is used to cats in the house, is respectful once he knows they are not a threat. He is quite intelligent & polite. A catio or cat run would be terrific for Moo, he loves lounging in sunny spots.

Health Notes

He had an injured tail which was treated at the vet when he was first taken in. However, this has fully healed up and just left a slight poodle-esque shape to his tail where the fur is still growing back. He is also missing a fang, which doesn’t slow him down in the slightest. Otherwise, he is in great health.
